Get Dale Earnhardt early

Use the following trick to get The Intimidator as soon as you start the game. First, go to select your favorite driver. On top, you should see Dale Earnhardt as a selectable favorite driver. When you choose him, you will automatically get his Thunder Plate. Later, you can change the favorite driver to whomever desired and still have the Thunder Plate.

Easy points

Unlock the Ford Lightning SVT truck. Go to "Production Racing" in race now mode. Choos a truck (for example, Mark Martin). Select Talladega (the longer the race, the more points you can get). Start the race. All the AI trucks will only reach about 80 mph. You can get lots of points for leading, plus bonus points for each truck you lap. The lap ratio is about 2 to 1. In a six lap race it is possible to lap the field three times.

Note: Just after you put your second lap on the entire field, slam on your brakes and let them pass you back. Then, hammer the gas and pass them again. Keep doing this, as you will get 25 bonus points lapping an opponent for each truck. This results in an additional 175 points every time you re-pass them. Because you still keep them one lap down, you will continue to get your leading points even when you sitting still waiting for them to re-pass you.

Easy Bud Shootout and Nextel Challenge win

While racing in the Bud Shootout or Nextel Challenge, pit on the first lap. After everyone else pits, you should have good track position and be able to win. If you come out in the lead, prepare to block.

Bump draft

This trick works best at super speedways. once you get behind a car, bump him in the center of the rear end. Do not spin him out or swipe the rear end. If done correctly, this will move you and the car ahead of you up through the pack. It should not affect the respect you have for him. Do not do this in the turns -- just on the straight aways.

Drift corners

Get a Featherlite and go to a short track such as Dodge Raceway Stadium, Levi Strauss Signature Track, etc. Around the corners, get your car halfway on the apron and half on the track. Your car should start sliding, but not enough to spin. Note: You will lose some time, but not a lot.
